How might one go about removing a word or a phrase from their vocabulary?

Asked by alabare (282points) September 5th, 2007

I have to talk to a lot of people throughout the day. Recently, I’ve noticed that I have a tendency to repeat certain words or phrases where it becomes noticeable to others. For example, when I’m trying to summarize a point, I’ll repeat the word “basically” several times to express the simplicity of my point. I want to remove these annoying/repetitious statements altogether. Any thoughts?
